Keller Funnel

The Keller Funnel™: Does it Hold Up to its Claims? — By James C. Grotting, MD & William J. Vinyard, MD
OBJECTIVE: To test this device and report our clinical experience to determine if the claims are valid.

New Technology: Keller Funnel™ Improves Practice Efficiency — By Scot A. Martin, MD
I have used the funnel on 120 patients now and I feel that all the concerns I had with placing a silicone gel implant in the past are gone. I use the Keller Funnel on every gel case. My incisions are smaller (about one centimeter shorter on average), operative times are less (approximately 6 minutes on average) and fears of skin flora contamination are completely gone as this is essentially a no touch technique.

Optimizing Breast Augmentation with Gel Implants in Non-Caucasian Patients Using the Keller Funnel™ — By Jose M. Soler-Baillo, MD
In the 30 patient cohort on which I have used the device, I have been able to generate outcomes that previously would have been extremely difficult or impossible to achieve without the Keller Funnel™. I can integrate a patient's desire for a specific aesthetic outcome in relation to their physical characteristics more fully than before.

Keller Funnel™ Addresses Capsular Contracture and Implant Rupture Complications
Clinical papers suggest that while the causes of capsular contracture are multi-factorial, exposure to biofilms and bacterial contamination almost certainly have a relationship. Limiting handling of the implants and limiting skin contact prior to the insertion are also suggested.  

Keller Funnel™ Reduces Insertion Force By Over 95%
As the bar graph below illustrates, the traditional finger push method requires over 27 pounds of force to deliver a 400 cc silicone implant through a 3.5 cm incision. The Keller Funnel reduces that force by over 95% to only 0.64 pounds.

ABSTRACT: 2 Year Clinical Experience Using a Novel Device for Gel Implantation

Upstate Plastic Surgery, Greenville, SC, April 2009
With the re-introduction of cohesive gel implants in 2006, we were challenged to find a means to continue to offer axillary or periareolar incisions for our primary augmentation patients without enlarging the incision for the gel devices. With this goal in mind, an insertion device called the Keller Funnel™ was developed.
